Home Brew Competition

Check back soon for details on how you can pre-book your biergarten ticket, as only a limited number will be offered and we can’t guarantee they’ll be available for purchase at the festival. Samples will be available from 3:30-6 p.m., or until samples are gone.

ENTER THE COMPETITION

Are you a home brewer interested in showing off your skills? Email melons@melonsformoolah.com to register! There is a cap of 20 entries for this competition.

Home brewers are asked to provide 5 gallons of their home brew in a keg or bottle, a cooler to store it in and a tapping system, if needed, to serve guests of this fundraising event. We’ll provide you with a table, tent and ice.

We’re looking for summertime brews, but feel free to bring your best brew.

Our panel of professional brewmasters will choose a Best of Show Champion and a runner-up and our festival attendees will vote on a Peoples’ Choice Champion. All winners will receive Festival Medals plus these great prizes from our event sponsors:

BEST OF SHOW CHAMPION

Troubled Waters Brewing in Safety Harbor will invite you to help brew your beer at its nanobrewery. You’ll get to name the beer (proper decorum, please!), with full credit given to you, and you will be invited to Troubled Waters for the official tapping!
